For experimentalshipping: Who cooks & who sets off the smoke alarm trying to help?

For le dipshit duo (and i can't believe i'm really about to ask this considering where this all originated from lord help me): What IS the most chaotic thing they’ve done together on pure impulse?

And based on what you know of my dear ryuleaf so far... Who sings in the shower & who secretly records it for blackmail/for their own amusement (cos blackmail might be too strong a word)?

Thanks for the ask! Now, I believe you specifically already know this, but for everyone else - can you imagine? I reblogged the ask game and pretty much immediately proceeded to destroy my right hand due to ~excessive buffoonery~ which wasn't even too bad but made typing a bit iffy. I'm catching up now. Sorry to everyone in my inbox x)

🍳 Who cooks & who sets off the smoke alarm trying to help? [ExperimentalShipping]

In order to survive the uni days, both Colress and Ein learned basic cooking skills and would, if the situation called for it, cook for themselves and sometimes the other as well. However, if there's a trend that one of them did this more than the other, it's definitely Ein because Colress can be a bit of an airhead.

(Back then Ein was also a lot more sane and responsible. His abilities to feed himself and others have significantly declined shortly before, during and after the Cipher arc.)

Both due to cooking and other reasons, Colress is probably responsible for a 300% increase in smoke alarms during his time at uni. Why? Colress Machines and kitchen experiments. One notable incident being that time he and Ein only ate omelettes and pancakes for two weeks straight because Colress was determined to figure out how to stylishly flip those and then create a machine for that purpose when he kept failing.

🌪️ What’s the most chaotic thing they’ve done together on pure impulse? [Dipshit Duo]

Aside from the fact that the very collaboration between Ein and Kvar is kind of a chaotic and random thing, I dare say that their recent arc of having nasty office/lab sex for incredibly unhealthy and unhinged reasons on both sides qualifies as that. As well as the fact that they will keep doing it and form an even weirder and more concerning relationship because of it.

There's also them deciding to go on the whole shadow human side quest together (ssshhht, don't tell Kvar I filed him under shadow humans, I don't want him in my DMs for that one). Technically, neither of them are supposed to research that, mind you. But they love being terrible people, so they couldn't resist the allure of figuring out how they can make themselves worse🖤

🎤 Who sings in the shower & who secretly records it for blackmail? [Ryuleaf/DesertFireShipping]

So my idea for this is that Leaf, being quite shy and all, does have ways she expresses herself. These are usually things she does by herself and in secret, and examples of these are dancing and singing. The shower is one place that feels safe and private, and the water noises also make her singing harder to hear, so Leaf likes to do it in there.

(I'm not projecting, you are.)

It takes Michael a while to notice and figure out what's going on. At first, he feels a bit weird about it, not because he's judging her for it but because he worries he's unintentionally intruding on a very private moment. He doesn't bring it up for a while. But listening to it becomes a sort of guilty pleasure, as well as recording it some point to enjoy it whenever he wants. It feels intimate, in a way, that Leaf is letting Michael close enough that he could potentially hear it, you know? And maybe she has since realized that he's listening and decided to be okay with it.
